Everything about the food was good until my dish arrived with 5 small shrimp. I expect more from a high end restaurant. Argentina has some awesome shrimp that are very affordable, hint, hint. Maybe quality isn’t that important to Purple. Yes, I was disappointed, especially for the upcharge for the shrimp.

OpenTable reservations at 2pm, arrived shortly prior, finding a very, very busy restaurant and hostess. Several minutes after checking in, and standing with my mom, basically in the small entrance area and adjacent to unfortunate customers whose table is near the entrance, another Host or Waiter asked who he could help next. I stepped forward, mentioned I had reservations for 2 at 2pm. The Hostess quickly turned from assisting another, said "I've covered that", and the newer Host led us to our upstairs table. I was surprised to only see 2 other tables occupied, of approximately 7 upstairs. Unsure why we had to wait. Irregardless, the inconvenience was forgotten as soon as our waitress, Riley, came to our table with a cheery, friendly persona. She allowed mom and I to chat, and did not act bothered at our delay in ordering. I did not receive any resistance when asking for turkey on the chopped salad, and mom's veggie burger looked very good within a toasted bun. Cutting the burger in half made it more manageable to eat for her. Both dishes were good flavored, and adequate portions. Having dined and enjoyed wine here before, I do like the offerings, and give high marks to Riley for being cognizant of when to approach customers and check on them and their meal. However, I have to ding Purple-Woodinville for how loud it is in their establishment. A few times mom or I had to repeat what we said to each other, due to the ambient sound level. One of our conversations included how we would buffer the noise. Haha! Overall, I would recommend Purple-Woodinville, especially on a sunny day. Post lunch or dinner, you can easily walk to tasting rooms, or walk the neighborhood to catch up on conversation that was missed inside, due to the volume.

We love Purple. The food is very creative. The menu satisfies both me (a vegetarian) and my husband (a carnivore). There are many great wines to choose from, and the service is friendly and fast. Very nice atmosphere.

I can always count on Purple in Woodinville for a great meal. The back room is quite loud and drafty, so I would recommend asking to not be seated in there. The food is great. A couple people had the veggie burger this time and it was outstanding. Best veggie burger any of us had tried.

Our appetizer was great and my steak was perfect but the chicken marsala was dry and once the small amount of sauce was gone it wasn't edible. Our wonderful waitress comped the marsala since 80% of it was left on the plate. Surprised to have a bad meal. Never happened before.

The staff were really wonderful in helping me make my mom feel special on her birthday. I brought flowers in beforehand which the front desk put in a vase for me and had placed on the table prior to our arrival. They also helped me preorder some appetizers. Our server was great, helpful yet unobtrusive. I believe the Manager stopped by our table to wish my mom a happy birthday. Wonderful team at this location!

It was a perfect place to celebrate a friend’s birthday. The server said Happy Birthday several times and when the friend didn’t want to order dessert she Brought three delicious chocolates with a candle!Excellent food and great service!

Have been to purple Café several times, unfortunately today was a disappointment! Went for my daughter‘s 25th birthday, the food was delicious per usual but the whole experience was a let down due to the extremely poor service! It was surprising and all that much more disappointing since usually they are at the top of the game!

My wife and I came here on a Friday night to celebrate her birthday per a recommendation from a close friend. Regardless of our reservation we were put in a dark corner under the stairs. It was a busy night with the usual east-side housewife crowd, and my request to move to another table was promptly denied with no follow-up concern. The food was good, but not great. All of our dishes seemed to be very heavy on sauce, which usually raises my concerns on the quality of the actual food being delivered. The romaine salad was both our favorite. The baked brie was okay despite the raving recommendations, and the sweet crackers served with it was very weird. We would not recommend this for a "special occasion" destination, but it would suffice for a happy hour or post wine-tasting bite.

It seemed that they were short staffed. Out waitress did a good job when she was available but there was quite a wait. It was also very noisy and it was difficult to hear each other at our table. This may not be the best place for group dining for those of us who are over 60 and want to hear each other.
